Stop asking for username and password when log on with Certs
----------
Trying to logon to the VPN client only with certificate and pin number. It recognizes my certificate asks for a pin, enter then pin number and everything is fine then it asks for a username and password. Once I enter the username and password it logs in successfully.

I do not want it to ask for username and password if I am using certificates and pin number.

Does anyone know why VPN pushing this multifactor authentication?
This is causing problems with email and network drives once you login.

I think it is the configuration of Active Directory that is being over looked, or maybe it is not verifying the certificates with active directory that is why is asks for username and password.

In the application Event viewer on the VPN client the error is
EventID 1054:
Cannot obtain the domain controller name for your computer network

Thank you all who respond......

types of authentication
----------
Authentication systems:

vpn users list(username and password)
radius server.

both the vpn userslist and radius server provides authentication.some vpn routers provide combined authentication systems which wants both the username and certificates.I believe in your case you have the vpn router which supports both the authentication systems.
